Taking a 'Cure'

To the Editor: I was dismayed while reading Daisann McLane's article to find Abano Terme dismissed as a main street of tacky shops and concrete-box hotels. Having gone to Abano every July for more than 20 years, I have seen it grow from a small quiet town to a very modern, clean and thriving quasi-city, with hotels in every price range, good restaurants, shops and, yes, even good pizzerias. For several years, the center of town has become a pedestrian mall, with many cafes, free concerts and exhibitions.
